Like many multinationals around the world, we have recently been subject to attempts to defraud our consumers by email.It has come to our attention that a number of emails purporting to be from representatives of Pepsi, frequently using the Pepsi trademark and asking either for cash payments or personal information, are beingsent to consumers across the world.If you receive one of these emails, it is highly likely to be fraudulent with no connection to either PepsiCo or any of PepsiCo'sauthorised bottlers.Please do not reply to the email, transfer any money into unknown accounts, or provide any personal details to thesender.If you have any doubts about an email and/or SMS you have received which shares the above characteristics, please forward it to talkto.simba@intl.pepsico.com so we can confirm its authenticity or otherwise.We are doing all we can to stop the fraudulent emails but in the meantime please exercise caution.
